Unearthing Immigration Records: Where to Begin
As family researchers, we know the thrill of uncovering our ancestors' stories. Immigration records serve as the starting point, the breadcrumbs leading us to our roots. But where do we begin this quest for familial treasures?
Online archives have become modern-day treasure troves for genealogists. Websites like Ancestry.com, FamilySearch, and the National Archives hold a wealth of immigration records. The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) also provides valuable insights into arrivals and departures.

Understanding your ancestors' immigration stories can illuminate the challenges they faced, the dreams they pursued, and the resilience that brought them to new lands. It's a personal connection to history, an intimate tale woven into the broader fabric of immigration narratives.
